Would a spring change fix your problems? Seem they would be much easier to replace.
The down side of MecGar mags is that you cannot buy replacement springs for their mags. They last forever, but when they’re shot, you have to shit-can ‘em.
Yes & no. It might help, but a really big problem for the FireStar is that over the years, I seem to have misplaced all but one of my magazines during multiple moves, and I did have a misfeed the last time I tried firing it. So a new spring might help, but I'd certainly like to have more than one 6 round magazine.
The biggest problem is that it seems Star has been out of business for nearly 20 years.
